Two things i need: for some idea for 18 inch wheels for the cl

chrome, white, or silver

2. if you think chrome white or silver would look good on my red cl

 

I want 18's as well. I have a black 98 2.3cl and I want silver rims. Not chrome though. Most likely a 5, 6, or 7 star pattern. If you want used rims, you should check my old post. Someone here wanted to sell me rims, but they weren't to my taste. Maybe you'll like them?

 

i am looking for 18 chrome but if i find nice silver ones i might go silver

 

i have a set of 17 chrome niche shocks that are near mint w/ tires

 

i want some 16 inch spoons. anyone kno if 16x7 will fit on our cars?

 

Ross... How much are you selling the wheels and tires for, and what kind of tires are they, % tred left on them. Thanx. BTW, how much would 2 w-type skirts and rear skirt cost painted?

 

the tires are kumho ecsta supra 712's. 205/40/17. they are practically brand new, about 5000 miles on the rears, about 1500 on the front (they were recently replaced after my camber problem blew out my tires.

the niche shocks, chrome, retail for about $2500, the tires around $380. total would be $2880. i will let them go for a measly $1000 plus shipping.

email us for parts and prices, i like to keep that off the forums.

 

Here is a pic of someone's car on this site. There was a thread about it but I have no time to look but here is a picture.

18 inch giovanni rims

 

I just put silver 18's with a polished lip on my red cl. It's a slotted five star and I think it looks pretty sweet. I'll send you a pic if you want.

 

One of the most important things I found out while I was shopping around was getting a specific offset so the tires won't rub. Mine have an offset of 40.

 

yes i would like a pic my acura is 1999 3.0 red

 

what are you gonna get?

 

not sure yet, i am looking at the new niche orca's. also looking at those wheels that keep spinning after you stop. still not sure, but i think i am going to stay with chrome on this one to keep it classy. who knows

 

why don't you look at something other then niches? something that hasn't been used much?

 

the orca's are brand new wheels! nobody has them! i dont care what brand they are, the model is what matters to me. besides, there are a dozen companies out there that now make the same wheel. ie, the konig monsoon design has been copied by 3 companies already.

 

haha, the funny thing is konig monsoons are just a copy

 

take a look at the axis hagens. I think they would look great on your car.


:disclaimer: i am by no means suggesting he gets chrome bling bling wheels, i'm just helping him find a good looking set

 

i will check them out. i liked your last suggestion about the tails so i think we have similar tastes.

btw, i would not go with chrome if i was building a tuner, but i am not, i would not even attempt to do that to a cl, its a waste of time.

 

i understand your approaches however do not agree w/ them. We have our ways. The CL could be a tuner, but it'd just take to much time and effort. This car has alot of potential. It handles great w/ the right tweeks. I've just hit my limit w/ it and want to start chasing porsches instead of running from the competition around

 

i agree and disagree about the potential of our car. it has potential because it is a well built v6. but potential is ultimately defined by what you can put into the engine to make it better, which in turn is determined by what is available for it. since there are only minor bolt on mods available for the engine, it really doesnt have as much potential as many other cars. i think that will change very soon when comptech releases the sc.

 

When i get some cash; I'm going for White Racing Hart D5000's in 18x7.5 trim. It'd look tyte on my black CL but i think it'd look great on your red one as well. If u want try silver; but please no chrome on red. Personally i think thats a no no.

 

who the fuck has a red car that you are talking to?
